Default Radio faceplate

I'm after the faceplate for the top of the dash so I can move the stereo up from where it is currently. Got an old school Kenwood trio to go in and it'll look much better in the top of dash rather than by the gear stick. Plus safer as I can keep eyes on the road.

Thanks

If you have the original Volvo radio that was in the top you can remove and cut the surround to make it the size of a single din radio. I think it just needs to be made wider if I remember correctly as I did mine 3 or 4 months ago.

No unfortunately mine is at the bottom. But I'd like to move to the top. Happy to modify an old radio, just getting hold of one.

People on ebay don't seem to like answering messages which doesn't help.

That’s a shame, you are not just trying to replace the factory one and able to use that surround, but at least you are aware you have the two options. Good luck with your search.
